The John Lee McFarlin House, also known as the A.D. Lester House, is a historic house located at 305 East King Street in Quincy, Florida. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
It is a Queen Anne-style house built for John Lee McFarlin in 1895 or 1896. Its NRHP nomination reports:
Compared to Queen Anne houses in other parts of the country, McFarlin's house may seem restrained, but in Gadsden County it is an extravaganza. It is a testament to a time when the function of a decorative turret was "to show that the owner could afford to build a home with decorative turrets."[2]
